Ludic Proof: Greek Mathematics and the Alexandrian Aesthetic

This book describes the relationship between science and poetry in the Hellenistic period by analysing the stylistic features of Hellenistic mathematics and then showing how they can be understood within the context of Hellenistic poetry. The result transforms our understanding of the origins of Western mathematics.
